Trump Urges Virginia Voters to Reject 'Blatant Partisan Power Grab' by Democrats
President Donald Trump is urging Virginians going to the polls Tuesday to reject a redistricting ballot measure that could give Democrats up to four additional House seats in November.
President Donald Trump has urged Virginia voters to reject a redistricting ballot measure that he claims is a 'blatant partisan power grab' by Democrats, which could potentially give them as many as four additional House seats in November's elections. The measure aims to redraw the state's congressional map after the 2020 census to reflect changes in population. Trump accused Democrats of trying to cheat and manipulate the process for their own gain. He is urging voters to reject the proposed redistricting plan and instead support alternative options that would maintain the existing bipartisan commission's role in drawing the lines.
